In combination with the stater kit PC Tool, you get an example that shows how to perform load cell measurements.

Never seen one&nbsp;with such impressive analog peripherals. ROM/RAM levels look quite decent too, not huge, but certainly not tiny either. Plenty for lots of applications.</p> <p>It would be nice to see a little dev-board for it, like Pico-sized (or similar) since the dev-board is quite pricey.</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=28318&AppID=7&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">
